Bob's pov
I was up all night at the hospital,my body was weak and heavily fighting the need to stay up. This is the second time I'm in the hospital in less than two weeks .
Everywhere was silent apart from the periodic cries of the babies in the maternal ward,then the footsteps began to echo in the hallway, slowly but steadily,it became louder,whoever it was ,was heading to my room. It wasn't the nurse,she had clearly informed me that the last time she came in was the last check in for the day.
I quickly got up with the last strength I had and hid behind the hospital curtains.
The door was opened ajar then shut gently, peeping from the curtain,I could see a muscular manly figure walking in.I quietly grabbed the flower vase which stood by the window.I might be in pain but I had to defend myself regardless,I can't let myself die like this .
"Fuck!,don't tell me they have gotten to him!" Williams' voice echoed in the room.
I immediately slid the curtains and fell into his arms weeping.
"It's okay Bob,I got you,you have nothing to be afraid of" William reassured me as he kissed my cheek.
"I have to get you out of here, come with me" he whispered.
With the help of a doctor who William seemed to have paid off,we snuck out of the hospital.On getting to the car,I saw Franky,my friend,the bartender. It's only been a few weeks but it felt like it's been ages since I saw him.
"Hey babe's,how are you?" he threw his arms around me in a tight hug.
His body was warm,and for that single second,I felt peace.
"What are you doing here?" I asked when I finally pulled away from the hug.
"Let's leave from here first please,you can talk about this on the way" William suggested.
"We're going to my place right?,it's close by the way" Franky asked.
"Yea,sure ,let's go" William responded.
We all got into his car, everyone was quiet,my head still felt heavy but I had to break the silence,"how come the two of you came here together?"
"Calm your nerves dick,no one is coming for your man" Franky teased, "well,I was at the bar when he called me and told me you were in an accident and all that stuff you said about someone wanting to kill you,so I suggested we got you out immediately, just in case "
"Thank you Franky"
"You're welcome,but you'd have to pay with your ass later " Franky turned and gave me a wink from the front seat .We both burst into a loud laughter, knowing how absurd his statement sounded.
This cracked me up real good,I was laughing so hard for someone going through so much, Franky was a power bottom who has sworn never to be a top in his life,what the hell was he talking about my ass. But William didn't seem impressed by the joke.
He drove the car in silence ignoring Franky and Franky's chit chat.
We got to Franky's place two minutes to midnight.I was already worn out so I made my way to the guest room. I was familiar with his house as aspected, I crashed at his place whenever Mike and I had relationship issues.
As I lay down to sleep, William walked into the room,"can we talk?" He mouthed.
I sat up on the bed,"alright, tell me,what's going on"
I have been meaning to ask you something, my mind hasn't been at rest after what you told me,do you really think my father did this,he wasn't even at the scene,he just found out about all of this just like me , don't you think maybe you're exaggerating the words he said to you?" He asked with a concerned look,it was obvious that even though he despises his father,he sure didn't want him to be a murderer.
"You're quick to cancel your dad out as the perpetrator but instigating it's your mom, ain't that weird?, considering we both know the better human out of them both" I asked,my eyes staring into his seeking for that truth.
"I don't know what you're talking about Bob" he tried to avoid my eyes.
He was worried and tense.I held his face in my palm"What is it?Do I need to know anything about your mom to help me understand this better?"
"Uhmm_uhmmm, my mom is just vengeful Bob,she had done this before, and the last time,the side chick didn't exist for another day after she found out,she might be a victim when it comes to my dad,but trust me , she's no saint, she's a viper that should not be messed " he replied.
I believed every word he said,the truth was written clearly in his eyes,I could see the inner child in him as he spoke,a traumatized inner child who turned out the way he is beyond his parents.
"You're saying your mom is the only one capable of killing me?"
"All I'm saying is that dad might be hard to get by but he hasn't done it before,but my mom on the other hand is a whole issue,she could go miles to get rid of you"
"What do we do then?"
"Nothing ,get some sleep " William kissed me goodnight and went to sleep on the sofa.
****"
It was morning and I was glad I felt better than yesterday. We had breakfast and William offered to drop me off,this time not at his apartment but his .
"I can't possibly accept this, what about your wife and kids?"I thundered
"They'll be fine you need not worry about that, they'll love you"
I reluctantly agreed ,what choice do I have anyways.
The house was empty when we got to Williams apartment,it was gigantic and morden,he took my bags to the guest room.
"You can stay here for as long as you want" he turned to leave and I dragged him back.
"Thank you"
He smiled ,pulled me closer to him and pecked my cheeks,but that was not enough.I wanted more,I held him tightly and slowly reached down to his waistline while he kissed me all over my neck.
As I unzipped his pants,the door flung open
"William!"
"Ruth,it's not what you think"
